Black Innovation

Uncover the Hidden Genius of Black Inventors who helped shape America. This project helps educators and parents teach untold Black inventor histories to inspire kids with real-world innovation and legacy. Explore powerful biographies, 3D patent illustrations, and over 400 real inventions by African Americans—a perfect resource for educators, parents, and curious young minds.

Celebrating INNOVATION aims to provide primary and secondary educators, STEM programs, and the like with content that integrates with current curriculum and engages kids to see themselves as inventors and problem-solvers—to see themselves in what they read. Teachers gain a compelling resource to diversify lessons. Parents are able to foster cultural pride and curiosity at home. We spotlight African American Inventions from Baker’s List of 400+ groundbreaking contributions of inventors.

Whether teacher, parent, or student, this book empowers young readers to see themselves as inventors and change-makers.
